Some FreeDOS FAT32 testing ideas and personal "testers wanted"

Hi,
I recommend that you use the updated (11 Nov 2002) version of kernel
2027. Supports FAT32 fine (for long file names, you need an additional
driver and only long file name - aware programs will use them).

Also, you can try DOSFSCK for DOS if you have a disk image to test with:
DOSFSCK for DOS does not yet support accessing the disk directly. Please
remind me from time to time that I am planning to fix this :-).

Finally, I am looking for testers of my LBAcache, both stable and devel
version. Devel version currently seems to perform worse than stable
version, you may want to benchmark this (compare to MS SMARTDRV and
DR-DOS NWCACHE - MS is probably FD*XMS* incompatible, but FreeDOS HIMEM
works okay). For benchmarking, please use /X with smartdrv and similar
option for nwcache, to turn off delayed/pooled write caching. As LBAcache
does not have this feature, you would compare "apples and pears" otherwise.

I will work on LBAcache devel performance now, but feel free to test the
current 12nov02 version already.

Thanks, Eric.
